yogamama3's Journal, 12 Sep 09

Yesterday I was doing really well until my husband decided to take me out at 9:30 pm. We went to Panera and I had soup in the bread bowl then a coffee at starbucks. I guess because I had done so well all day that it didnt really mess me up too bad. But I will not be doing that again anytime soon. We couldnt get the kids to bed and when they finally did go that was going to be our time to go out, little did we know it would take so long. It was nice going out even if it was just for an hour really late at night.

Today my kids have Kinderchoir, an all German choir they have been in for 3 years now. We love it, the kids are almost all homeschooled like ours and they are all so nice, bilingual too. Very intelligent kids. The parents are great too. Last year we had soccer and then basketball so we couldnt do choir so the parents have not seen me in 90lbs! I'm feeling very good about walking in there!!! Yay!!!

Other than that not to much going on right now. I have my gram here with me for a couple days and last night I put on this dress to show her. I was so proud of it and how I could wear it. It was like a ballgown, well....she says to me, "thatll look so much better when you lose more weight." ok so I know her and thats just how she is but I hope she realizes that I wont be losing weight forever. What if I was done losing weight and she had said that? I mean I am not far from my goal so I dont really know how much I will change in 12lbs.

I was not bummed my it like before because I know my God loves me for me and I am FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE. Remember that when you are down. You too are fearfully and wonderfully made and God thinks about you all the time and he loves you whether it be at 350lbs or 100lbs He loves you. :) You know what else makes me happy John 15:16 You did not chose me I chose you. God said that. You were chosen by God. So even if no one else chooses you He did and that is so awesome.

Have a great day.

Leave it to our grandmothers to say things like that! My Grandma is a spunky little old lady, but totally speaks her mind--good and bad. I love her dearly despite her "honesty" at times. :-) I'm glad you didn't let it get to you. Great post, especially the last paragraph!

My grandmother once told my mother ( her mother in law) that she didn't have a lap where the dog could sit! She was forever harping on us to go on a diet and then once we did.. she would bring nothing but junk over on her weekly Sunday visit.

You sound much more grounded!!! YAY!!! People will say what they say. They don't intend on being hurtful ... they just say what they say. Good work at taking that in stride. Indeed ... we were fearfully and wonderfully made!!! At 350, 250 or 150 lbs. Our "worth" is NOT dependent on our poundage ... though it is sometimes difficult to fully embrace that. Your time out with hubby sounds lovely. It is important to get out of the house with him, alone, from time to time. And your choices don't sound bad at all!!! Have a great weekend ... keep up the wonderful point of view!!! Take care!!
